I guess one of the major headache behind this not being implemented is: which plugin should be open/shown when using this shortcut?
You'd need at least to select the plugin first, no? In this case, as selecting a plugin is achieved by clicking its title bar... where the open/show button is ...

Thanks again to all the answers supplied here, in the end I think I have a way forward.

Hardly a thing, and hardly a deal breaker as you put it, the majority happy with the way it is.


Somehow missed this.

As said elsewhere whilst we can accept it may not be a thing for you, that's fine, but your assertion that it's 'hardly a thing' is obviously wrong, as it clearly overlooks the ...

In live 10 it should be possible to select multiple clips at once and edit them in one go. Haven't tried it (no need) .

And for audio clips you can edit the audio file destructively in an external audio editor and it ...

...I would love to see linked/ghost clips as it would make managing things like drum tracks much easier. It is possible to work around this like it’s possible to work around the lack of vocal comping but it would be welcome.


Thanks, is your workaround similar to the one posted above by ...

While it’s hardly a deal breaker the op does have a valid request that would be very handy. I would love to see linked/ghost clips as it would make managing things like drum tracks much easier. It is possible to work around this like it’s possible to work around the lack of vocal comping but it ...

Now, in all fairness, it is true that if you became very familiar with one DAW then it can be tricky to get used to another. That part is absolutely true and it's something I still experience myself (somewhat daily) when I move my focus between Live, Reason and/or Maschine. But I fully agree with ...

Yeah, well your assertion that this would be great for everyone’s workflow and the lack could be a deal breaker was pretty presumptuous for a new user. Maybe spend a couple of weeks with the program before you start with the advice. Perhaps start with reading the users guide.


Funny, because ...

Just because something is great for your workflow, doesn’t make it great or necessary for other users workflows. This thread seems like it wasn’t so much a legitimate question, but a lead in for your suggestion.


@jonlijacob well that was a helpful reply. :roll:

Make it worse your assumption ...

PS @Ableton it would be immensely practical and great for workflow to simply allow this cloning, having large amounts of swapping out could be a deal-breaker

Edit one clip and copy it over the others.

Got it, I think. I think I have understood you - Live offers no clip cloning abilities at all.

Cheers

Thanks.

But is there any workaround here? Coming from Cubase I am used to ghost parts option.

So if in Live I create different scenes made of clips and wish to tweak a clip that was used in the parts of the different arrangements, do I really have to edit individually every one?

Hi, from Cubase here and it has 'ghost' parts where one part can be copied but retains the edits of the original.

Are clips like this? For instance if I drag clip A from the library to multiple midi tracks OR
duplicate/copy clip A in session view to multiple empty clips/midi channels. Will editing ...

Thanks.

Anyone know of future plans to include this option?

You can also set the display to auto-hide and display in the settings, this means the vst will be hidden if you select another active track and gets re-opemed when you select the track its on again. I personally prefer this method myself.


Thanks, and for all replies. How do I do that? I've only ...
